The Bride, with her Father.
AS the bride slowly passed to the
altar suppressed mumurs of admiration
were heard on every hand. She wore a
magnificent costume of white faille
Franchise, the long, Square-cut train
falling from the waist in graceful folds.
The front was in broad, flat plaitS, which
terminated in points, between which
deep pearl embroidery was revealed.
The corsage was high in the neck, with
high collar and long sleeves. The bridal
veil of tulle reached the full length of
the train, and a second veil, covering
worn to the altar, where it was
removed by the maid of honor
when the ceremony began. The bridal
party was joined at the altar by the
/ groom and his best man, who entered
Efrom the vestry. Waiting to receive
them stood the minister, DR.. George
r. MacLean, of the state university, in
|, black robes. AS the solemn ceremony
I{began the music became almost silent,
so low were the tender strains which
ltseelned to breath benisonS on the happy
pair. The ushers have arranged them
selves in a semi-circle on either side of
the altar, and in front of them stand
fsthe bridesmaids, while the little maid of
honor remains at the side of the bride.
The father gives the hand of the bride
to the minister, who in turn places it in the
Keeping of him who is hencefOrth to be
her protector, and with hands clasped
they repeat the solemn troth which
binds till death shall part. Every word
of the responses is heard throughout
| the church, the organs low melody
inn a mil Of l,n
| scene. The wedding ring is placed
upon the waiting finger, and kneeling
upon the snowy satin cushion before
the minister, they join in his praise to
the God who has implanted love in
human hearts, in his supplication for
happy home, and with him they audibly
repeat the Lords prayer. Then the
solemn words of union are pronounced,
and bowling their heads to the benedic-
ton which the doctor so solemnly in
vokes, they receive his congratu-
lations at the altar and turn to
face a new life. Memberships
union, as, followed by their attendants,
they leave the sanctuary for the home of
the brides parents. The members of
the bridal party were the maid of honor,
Miss Ella Clerihew, the young sister of
the bride; the bridesmaids, Miss Moul-

The bridesmaids all wore white costumes
walking length, with low, sleeveless
corsage, and moSquetaire gloves. Each
carried bunch of pearl roses fastened
with long bows of white satin ribbon.
Tbs maid of honor carried basket of
large white Marguerites. A noticeable
feature was the absence of all color save
foliage. both from the costumes and the
decorations. In leaving the church the
usher escorted the bridesmaids standing
on the opposite side of the altar. After
the six couples thus formed came the
two remaining usherS. The best man,
